Spencer

I have a new dog! His name is Spencer. 

Of course he has his own feeding dish and a bone!

Angela a friend of me works for a charity and knit fantastic toys! 

I can't knit or crochet so I am always happy when I have the 

opportunity to buy something like this.

Here are 2 photos of my cairn terriers:

She was 54 cm tall and weighed 3960 g.

Congratulation to her parents Andreas and Bianca.

Love Bug Cushion Project Part 5

Yesterday I have finished my love bug.

Now it looks like a Volkswagen Beetle.

As you can see I have done some modifications.

As I mentioned in one of my posts before I stitch on 11 count Aida instead of 12.

I found the Aida fabric holes to big in the screen so I decided to fill them. I stiched windows in the same

colours like the spotlights.

For the wheels I used 4 strands of black thread. I stiched them before in 3 but the white fabric shone through. 

I will also stich the backstich in 2 strands. 

I hope you like my love bug.

Have a nice Sunday

Love Bug Cushion Project Part 3

Here is my next update of my Love Bug project.

Now I have stiched some more flowers.

If you grew up like me in Germany in the 1970s and 1980s, 

you'll remember the Pril flowers, 

flower shaped stickers included as premiums with bottles of detergent. 

Turn out they were almost impossible to get off again.

As a child I put them on my new bunk bed!!!!
